Then, Wang Xiaohei carefully put the recorder away and walked towards the classroom.
As soon as he sat down in the classroom, He Dongmei walked in.
"Students, the half-term exam is tomorrow. You must take the exam well. If you don't do well, you know what the consequences will be." He Dongmei said sternly.
After hearing this, the bustling voices in the classroom immediately became very quiet, so quiet that you could even hear your own breathing.
Then, He Dongmei gave the students in the class the final instructions before the exam: "After getting the test paper, first look at the test paper to see if there are any misprints or omissions, or if there are any blurred or unclear handwriting. If there are any, please report to the teacher." Raise your hand, if you don’t have one, write your name and exam number first..."
The next morning, all the students in the school came to the classroom early, and then prepared for the exam in an orderly manner under the arrangement of the teacher.
Although the results of Liangxikou Middle School where Wang Xiaohei is located are not among the top in the county, it has a special examination method. That is, all students in the school take the examination on the playground. Before the examination, all students are asked to move their desks, chairs and benches. Go to the playground, and then place the tables one meter apart from the front, back, left, and right. Teachers from the entire school will be free to invigilate the exams on the playground, without distinguishing which grade the teacher teaches.
According to the teacher, this fine tradition has lasted for more than ten years. It is precisely because of this tradition of Liangxikou School that the school has gained a good reputation. Everyone calls it the "Iron Blood Examination Center."
After early self-study, He Dongmei told her classmates to pack all the books in their desks and put them in the classroom, and then organized the students to move their desks and chairs to designated locations on the playground in an orderly manner. After all the tables in the class were arranged neatly on the playground, He Dongmei glued everyone's admission ticket number to the upper left corner of the table with the glue prepared in advance.
At this moment, a five-story classroom became empty, and the playground, which was originally only crowded with a few people, was densely packed with people.
After all the students sit in their corresponding seats, the invigilator will compare the students' test numbers to confirm whether they are sitting in the wrong seat.
At this time, the head teacher of each class will stand at the front of the class with the test paper in hand, waiting to distribute the test paper.
After all the preparation work is completed, the principal Yan Ting will announce the distribution of test papers to teachers according to the set time.
Looking at the white test paper, everyone followed the teachers' instructions and carefully read the test paper. After confirming that it was correct, they wrote down their names, class, exam number and other basic information on the test paper.
As the time came, Yan Ting glanced at the watch on his hand and immediately picked up the iron rod in his hand and rang the iron bell hanging on the flag stand.
"The exam begins!"
As soon as the bell fell, Yan Ting shouted loudly towards the playground.
On the gray playground covered with concrete, the solemn atmosphere on the cement floor is filled with seriousness and tension. Rows and rows of candidates sat in neat seats, facing the test papers that looked like an endless abyss in front of them. There was an indescribable tension and anxiety on everyone's face, as if every tiny breath was amplified in the silent air, making it impossible to ignore.
The expressions of the invigilators were as serious as statues, and their eyes were as sharp as eagle eyes. Their pace is regular and rigorous, and they patrol the examination room meticulously. No minor violation can escape their eyes. Their strictness and fairness are like an invisible mountain, pressing on every candidate's heart, making people feel invisible pressure.
During the entire exam, the only sound was the rustle of the pen tip across the test paper, as cold and desolate as the fallen leaves in autumn. Every candidate focused on the test paper in front of them, with determination and courage written on their faces. They were looking for answers in the white test papers and black writing, as if they were looking for an oasis in a barren desert.
When the end bell rings, almost all the students will let out a long sigh of relief, and then slowly stand up from their seats to stretch their somewhat stiff bodies.
Then, these students who have finished the exam will return to their classrooms, and then stand in the empty classroom waiting for the arrival of the head teacher.
"Xiao Hei, how did you do in the exam?"
"I think these questions are so difficult. I have never seen them before, so I don't know how to do them."
"That's right. I think these questions are beyond the stipulations?"
…
In the classroom, everyone was whispering and discussing the test questions just now.
Although these questions are somewhat difficult, in the eyes of Wang Xiaohei, who has memories of the past, he is still a top student in this world, so he can still handle these questions easily.
While everyone was busy discussing, He Dongmei came to the classroom with a gloomy face.
"Bang." He Dongmei slammed the teaching stick in her hand on the podium.
In fact, it is not so much a teaching stick as a sharp weapon for beating people. This sharp weapon is a bamboo whip, which can be seen everywhere in rural areas of the southwest. It is made of bamboo. It looks soft but is actually extremely hard. There will definitely be a slender red mark every time the stick is pressed.
Because the educational environment at that time was different, almost all schools in remote rural areas at that time mainly used stick education, supplemented by oral education. As long as they were disobedient or their grades declined, they would inevitably have a meal of "fried meat with bamboo shoots."
Most teachers at that time did not have more advanced and scientific teaching concepts, and some only had the examination-oriented mentality of "gold bars produce good people".
Wang Xiaohei had often received the baptism of bamboo whips before. Every time he was beaten, he would be so painful that he could not sit down and could only stand and listen to the class. Sometimes we encounter more violent teachers. They will hold the rubber stick tightly with both hands, and then hit it on the buttocks. What follows is a heartbreaking and loud begging for mercy. Every time, the whole buttocks will be covered. It will leave countless little red dots.
All the students in the classroom were so frightened by He Dongmei that they did not dare to speak or even speak out. The atmosphere in the entire classroom was unusually quiet and panicked.
"Who didn't write the name? How many times have I told you that you must write the name first and then do the questions, but some people just don't listen. When I find out who didn't write the name, I'll be with you. Eat the fruit." He Dongmei shouted angrily.
No one in the class dared to speak. Seeing this, He Dongmei continued to threaten: "If I find out in the next exam that there are still people in our class who haven't written their names, I will definitely let you remember your names."
After that, he asked other students to eat first.
Only Wang Xiaohei was left!
